The effects of endophytic microbial inoculation and temperature on the phenolic content of tartary buckwheat (TP) sprouts were investigated. TP seeds were inoculated with Herbaspirillum spp. at concentrations (%v/v) of 0 (control), 10, 20, and 40% at 20, 25, and $30^{\circ}C$ in a growth chamber for seven days. It was observed that the phenolic content (PC) including flavonoid, rutin, and tanin increased with an increase in inoculant rate at $20^{\circ}C$, whereas the PC content increased with an increase in temperature regardless of the inoculant rate. Therefore, it is suggested that increasing the inoculant rate is effective at achieving higher phenolic contents when plants are grown at lower temperatures.

To obtain basic data for the development of domestic tea manufacture, the physico-chemical properties were analyzed. The content of crude fiber in domestic black tea was abundant of 50%, as compared with those in Sri-Lanka's black tea, while the contents of tanin and caffeine were lower than those of Sri-Lanka's Products. The quantities of mineral in Sri-Lanka's products were determined as 300ppm P, 15,000ppm K, 1,400ppm Mg, 4,000ppm Ca, 22ppm Cu, 21ppm Cr and 45ppm Zn. These contents were higher than those of domestic products. Al content was 4,100ppm in domestic products. Pb and Cd were not detected in two kinds of black tea products. In Sri-Lanka's black tea, 8 kinds of organic acids were identified and the major organic acids were shikimic, citric and quinic acid, while 6 kinds of organic acids were identified in domestic products and were quinic and gallic acid, as the major organic acids. The content of sucrose was higher than that of Sri-Lanka's product and theaflavin, thearubigin and theobromine were abundant, as compared with those in domestic products.

To provide the basic data to dry vegetate the sweetpotato leaves, the total contents of tannin, flavonoid and polyphenol in the methanol extract from the hot-air dried sweetpotato leaves were analyzed and DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS radical scavenging ability, nitrite scavenging ability, and others were comparatively analyzed. The total tannin content was decreased from Shinmi of 10.87 mg/g at $40^{\circ}C$ to 7.28 mg/g at $70^{\circ}C$ and the total flavonoid was decreased from Hayanmi of 55.37 mg/g at $40^{\circ}C$ to 39.63 mg/g at $70^{\circ}C$. That is, the low temperature drying contained more of these substances than in the high temperature drying. The DPPH radical scavenging activity was the highest in Shinmi and Hayanmi of 84.33% and 85.25% at $40^{\circ}C$, and the ABTS radical scavenging ability was a high value of over 80% in the treatment plot at $40^{\circ}C$. The nitrite scavenging ability was highest in Shinmi and Hayanmi of 76.15% and 73.74% at $40^{\circ}C$ but low at $70^{\circ}C$. That is, the antioxidant effect of the hot-air dried sweetpotato leaves was high in the sample of $40^{\circ}C$ and low in the sample of $70^{\circ}C$. Affected by the drying temperature, the high antioxidant effect is resulting from the little decrease of active ingredient when drying at low temperatures.
